Re: PDF Performance

I've got Mercurial running on a 6.1 box. There is a Mercurial plug-in
for eclipse too. I use it for my Java code, but I'm sure it would work
fine for RPG or really any text documents.

I couldn't get git working on our box, so I went with Mercurial. I
have no complaints about it. Seems to work great for me. I think
Mercurial has better Windows support too.

I wish I had a better way to manage changes and host the project.  I
know at one time you were working with SVN for managing RPG source
changes for projects like this.  How did that/is that working out?

I would encourage using a _distributed_ versioning system instead of
subversion, simply because this removes the need for having a central
server for things to work.

Based on the discussions on Stack Overflow, there are currently three
big players.  Mercurial (used by Sun), git (used by Linus) and Bazaar
(used by Ubuntu owner).  Each have strengths and weaknesses.

Netbeans have well baked-in mercurial support (Sun eats their own dogfood).

We are looking into git, and dipping the toe on github.com.  There is a
reasonable Eclipse plugin, and it appears to be available on AIX so it
can run in PASE.
